There is nothing worse than picking out your favorite movie to watch for movie night, only to realize the disk is so scratched it won’t play!

You might be surprised what the magic product is that fixes scratched Dvd’s and even Cd’s, as it can be found in your own bathroom cupboard. Check out the instructional below on how to fix a scratched dvd:

Items Needed:

Scratched DVD or CD

Cotton Swab

Plain Toothpaste (Basic brand)

Microfiber Cloth

Instructions:

Start by dipping the cotton swab into the toothpaste.

Start from the inner circle outwards and slowly start rubbing the toothpaste into the deep scratches. You may notice some other marks that appear when doing this which is normal.

Let the disk and toothpaste sit for at least 10 minutes. Once it has soaked, rub off the excess toothpaste with a soft cloth.

Finish by cleaning the disk with a damp microfiber cloth, picking up any leftover toothpaste or marks. Let dry.

Once disk is dry, pop it in to the player and the disk should be working nicely! Repeat as necessary.
